Why do we keep paying for foreign oil and gas when we could create domestic jobs with green energy?

Eric asked:


We have tons of coastal area. Why not harvest the tides and get our energy that way. That way the money would go to people here.
Its energy that looks green……no, if your serious its energy that comes from nature and not the remains of million year old decayed animals……
Keerok, you wouldn’t have to convert it, just use batteries and whatnot. Electricity is electricity. We get ours from power lines. All you have to do is hook it up to the green power plants. Oil electricity is the same thing as green electricity.

Sawyer asked:


My energy supplier is offering options of staying the same (regular), going 50% green, or going 100% green.
Going green is more expensive.
Any advice?

MSMTruther asked:


the rail system will generate over 177 MILLION Megawatts of Electricity per year! Currently, the US consumes the equivalent of 3.4 MILLION Megawatts of Total Power per Year in all energy forms like gasoline, coal, gas, nuclear, solar, wind, biodeisel, geothermal, hydrodams, etc…That means, this system is completely capable of producing Far Greater energy than our country consumes, so, this excess electricity would then be converted to Clean Burning Hydrogen Fuel and transported through …

What will all these alternative energy people do? Will it cost more than 150 billion dollars?

What will happen to the people already working in energy? How much more expensive will this be than nuclear, which the democrats are still against?

Why is green energy referred to as alternative energy?

August 30th, 2009 10 Comments »
Oggy Boggy asked:


Wouldn’t it make more sense to call it “green,” “clean,” or “renewable” energy? Just what exactly is green energy an alternative to? Is it an alternative to global warming, dependency on fossil fuels, deforestation, depletion of the earth’s resources, extinction of several species, and acid rain? Is it an alternative to fighting wars over oil, oil lobbyists trying to run the show, and large corporations getting tax breaks and large subsidies? It doesn’t sound like an alternative to me; it sounds like a solution. What do you think?
